We join you in lifting this burden before the Lord, standing firmly on His Word and the authority we have in Jesus Christ. Your heart for deliverance and righteousness is evident, and we commend you for seeking the Lord’s intervention in this matter. It is clear that this situation has caused deep distress, and we stand with you in rebuking the spiritual forces at work while also addressing the biblical principles that must guide our response.
First, we affirm your use of Scripture to combat this harassment, for the Word of God is indeed a powerful weapon. Zechariah 3:2 declares, *"Yahweh said to Satan, ‘Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yes, Yahweh who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?’"* The Lord is your defender, and He will not allow the enemy to prevail against you. We also stand on Proverbs 16:3, which reminds us, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* Your commitment to repentance and surrendering this situation to God is a step in the right direction.
However, we must address the nature of the past relationship you mentioned. You stated that this individual pursued you *while you were married*. This is a grave matter, for Scripture is unequivocal about the sanctity of marriage and the sin of adultery. Hebrews 13:4 states, *"Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers."* If there was any physical or emotional infidelity during your marriage, it is critical to fully repent before the Lord, seeking His forgiveness and cleansing. 1 John 1:9 assures us, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* True repentance involves turning away from sin and aligning your life with God’s Word. We urge you to examine your heart and ensure that every area of your life—past and present—is surrendered to Christ.
You have declared that you hold no unforgiveness, and we pray that this is indeed the case, for unforgiveness can open doors to spiritual bondage. Mark 11:25-26 warns, *"Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions."* We encourage you to pray earnestly, asking the Holy Spirit to reveal any hidden bitterness or resentment so that you may release it fully to the Lord.
As for the harassment you are experiencing, we stand with you in binding every manipulative spirit and breaking any ungodly soul ties that may have been formed. Matthew 18:18 confirms, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven."* We declare that every attempt of the enemy to harass, manipulate, or forcefully intrude into your life is nullified by the blood of Jesus. Psalm 34:17-19 assures us, *"The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all."*
We also pray for the salvation and repentance of those who are persecuting you. Jesus commands us in Matthew 5:44, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you."* While we rebuke their actions, we ask that the Lord soften their hearts and draw them to Himself. It is not our desire to see anyone remain in bondage to sin, but rather that they would turn to Christ and experience His transforming grace.
Finally, we encourage you to seek godly counsel and support during this time. Isolation can leave you vulnerable to further attack, but surrounding yourself with mature believers who can pray with you and hold you accountable is vital. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 reminds us, *"Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up."*
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who seeks Your deliverance and protection. Lord, You are a God of justice, and You see the harassment and manipulation she has endured. We stand on Zechariah 3:2 and declare that You, Lord, rebuke every evil force at work in this situation. Break every ungodly soul tie and sever every connection that the enemy has tried to use against her. Bind every spirit of manipulation, control, and harassment, and cast them into the abyss, never to return.
Father, we ask that You expose every hidden motive and bring to light anything that does not align with Your Word. If there has been any sin—whether in thought, word, or deed—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Wash her anew with the blood of Jesus and restore her to a place of righteousness and peace. Lord, we declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against her in judgment shall be condemned (Isaiah 54:17).
We pray for the individuals involved in this harassment. Soften their hearts, Lord, and convict them of their actions. Draw them to repentance and salvation, that they may turn from their wicked ways and seek Your face. Father, we ask that You place a hedge of protection around our sister, guarding her mind, emotions, and spirit from further attack. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding and strengthen her to walk in victory.
Lord, we thank You that You are her deliverer, her shield, and her strong tower. We trust in Your promise from 2 Timothy 4:18: *"The Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom."* May Your will be done in her life, and may she experience the fullness of Your freedom and restoration. We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
